COUSINS FREESTYLE Lyrics

It's not that simple Uncle Levi

Look at me now, came from hand-me-downs

Thought it used to hold me back, now I see it held me down

Now I look at us now, we ain't gotta doubt

How the same ones from back then are the same ones that around, yeah

Look at me now, yeah, yeah

Look at us now, came from hand-me-downs

Look at us now, told 'em we ain't gotta doubt

I used to pray for sleep while my grandma was praying for me

Talking 'bout what is that you gon' need

Something bout Jesus Christ and collard greens

Now my big cousin on TV and my sister tapped in like IV

Back then we was sharing a room, now we taking trips out to Greece

Now we standing on office and stepping on necks like it wasn't a problem

But Imma be honest I tried to be modest

But I gotta gift and you know where I got it, he's so outta pocket

He know that he different, that's just how it be

Now that my mama go shopping with me

Now that I feel like I'm repping my city like Dennis be preaching for all of these streets

When back then I was just the youngest, when I didn't know all things I could do

They planted a seed and water me now, you talking my family, I'm talking my roots

I'm talking 'bout Shay in the Acura saying that you could do anything you want to do

Or how I flew to my city to show all my people that we belong on the news too

So I'm popping champagne for my people, 'cause they was around for the prequel

When I ain't around, they holding it down, they swearing they all want a sequel, how I

Came from the vision of mud, you know that the water ain't thicker than blood

Internet fingers, you swear that you thugging, you pull up on fade, you know I got cousins

We all gon' link up

And step, step, we stepping

Step, step, step

Yeah we gon' link up

I step, you step

We pull up, what's next, and repping, step

I pray for rest, my family, blessed

Big Mex, he stepping, JP and T they pressed in

Thank God for C in Texas, told 'me to count on my blessings

Might have to pull up on J in the East, swear it's been way too long

Know that li'l C and li'l A in the West playing out all my songs

My family they keeping me grounded, praying I'm staying around it

Say that you thugging, pull up you know I got cousins
